I'm voting for a democrat in the general election....but I am going to vote for the .. she has grown on me..
I know you are all whispering about Obabama but you don't want to admit you like the guy. I'm sure TPark would glady give Barack a funnel cake on the house if he had the opportunity. Xray would glady sit down with Barack at a town meeting and discuss the issues. Maybe Whottt would like to talk about experimenting with drugs with Barack?
Come on now......I know you are out there.

Your avatar and your sig coupled together could not have been more appropriate for a response like this.
she seems to have "grown" on a lot of things....like a mold....
thanks!

Yeah, I would like for him to explain his plans for
"change". Since all he talks about is expanding government
programs. Vote for him, I don't think so.
Vote for John McCain
For
Another 100 years in Iraq!
More wars!
Fewer jobs!
And amnesty!
Probama.
Would vote for Clinton if I have to, even if I like McCain more as a person. But I don't think I'll have to make that choice.
Probama. Gobama!
If Obama would just explain how hes gonna pay for alot of the things he proposes I could get a clearer picture on him.
I agree with him on civil unions and gay marriage. I agree with him on the border fence. Researching last night, theres quite a few things that I can go with him on.
I could go for Obama with a GOP controlled Congress. I think that combination could actually get a few things done in DC, at least in a way that was actually good for the country. As it stands, if it's Obama v McCain, I think I may vote Libertarian, or for one of those other parties' slate of candidates.
Is the Socialist Workers party still around? When in doubt, you might as well vote for the real deal.
NSFW. bad language.
seems like a lot of people are voting against hillary rather than for obama. the dude doesn't sit right with me.
It still counts as a vote FOR Obama.![]()
The same way Bush is paying for Iraq, the same way that we pay for all new spending without raising taxes, and the same things that will eventually cause or currency and economy to crash: debt and inflation.
He's just another candidate promising the voters the world, but I give him credit for not being a Clinton.
I only wish he'd promise to bring about change. You know, some real change that we can count on.

Disable old and worthless social programs?the same way that we pay for all new spending without raising taxes
What? They don't do that?
My bad.
The changes are coming. Props to TPark for at least looking at Obama.![]()

No one does that. That's political kryptonite. It would take a non-politician (like, maybe, Ron Paul) to actually cut spending.
But since that isn't happening, we might as well just learn to accept government spending and a rise in taxes (it doesn't matter what McCain says/flip-flops now, he knows he's going to have to repeal the tax cuts).
Anyways, being a moderate, I can't lose. Who gives a about the social crap. Who cares about illegals. It's all the same. As long as someone balances the ing budget (raise the ing taxes if you have to, cut the ing social programs), I'm all for it. Economic policy trumps all.
We know that neither party will be able to fulfill most of what they are promising now. I don't expect Obama to be able to create socialized medicine (maybe just reform) just as I don't expect him to be able to buy me a pony.
As long as we get a president who thinks before he/she acts and can accept their mistakes, we'll be ok. That's not too much to ask, is it? No more neo-cons; I think the real Republican party is back. w00t! Let's just pray the neo-cons don't get back in power when the base overreacts to a probable McCain loss in November.
I can't lose.

, I would do most the above with him. I would offer him some home brew, shoot 9-ball with him, discuss politics, and drugs with him, and more.
As a person, I like him for the most part. I just disagree with his political positions.
Well, depending on your point of view, you could say president Bush did raise taxes. Lowering the tax rates increased the economy and raised the overall revenue to the government. Looking at it from that point, he did raise taxes. Removing the tax cuts, will decrease revenue to the government as people have less to spend, which in turn will decrease economic activity.
I agree. I think when it comes to the bigger picture, he is a bit nieve. Senator Clinton however is just a lying . They both actually have the same primary positions. He is just more honest about his positions, and I respect him for that.
Good change or bad? How often does the government do anything that really is better?
I want the Ron Paul approach. Do less... except for defense. If government would get out of our way, we could become a great nation again, instead of being on the downhill slide we are on. At the rate we are going, it won't be long before we lose our number one status.
Now something to think about...
If Hillary wins the democrat primaries, I will vote for whoever wins the republican primaries, likely McCain. However, if it is Obama against McCain... I cannot in good conscience vote for McCain I see him as a liberal collaborator. I might actually vote for Obama. At least with Obama, I trust he will see things differently when he actually sits in the big chair and gets the special briefings that others don't get. I don't want to hold my nose voting for McCain, I might even write in Romney.
Another thing with Obama is that it will tear the democrats apart if they can see it wasn't just their lovable democrats that were not racists, and if a black man can be president over the . That's not all. If he maintains his liberal policies, it means a real desire for the conservative movement to wake up again. Maybe like the stock market, we need a political correction. We need to hit bottom, and we haven't yet. Perhaps we need a democrat congress and executive to remind people what they forgot about history...
How economically terrible it is to have the legislature and presidency controlled by demonrats.
+1
Do the right thing on 3/4/08 everyone.
My employment is due to Federal subsidies, so our budget, which has been cut by almost 20 percent, will more than likely be restored closer to pre-2004 levels.
Still, I'll end up voting for McCain over Obama, but i'm anti-Hillary, so if a Dem gets elected I'd prefer Obama.
No problem at all with having an African-American President, but they'd need to be more of a Colin Powell type to get my vote.
i did my part in the Va primary
In case you haven't heard, the stupid war in Iraq sucks up billions of $.
You can do the math now.
